Lustrous 1924-D Double Eagle, MS 62 PCGS

1924-D $20 MS 62 PCGS. Once a fabulous rarity, the 1924-D has slipped to a median ranking in the Saint-Gaudens double eagle series. Of course, examples are still elusive in all Mint State grades, and the '24-D compares favorably to the 1925-D and 1926-S in this regard. This is an attractive coin for the grade whose reddish-gold surfaces are draped in nearly continuous mint frost. Scattered bagmarks rule out a Select grade, but neither side reveals any evidence of the die deterioration that plagues many survivors of this issue.
From the David & Jeannie Cheung Collection.
